* About the Conference
The International Conference on Conceptual Modeling is the leading international forum for presenting and discussing current research and applications in which the major emphasis is on conceptual modeling. Topics of interest span the entire spectrum of conceptual modeling including research and practice in areas such as theories of concepts and ontologies underlying conceptual modeling, methods and tools for developing and communicating conceptual models, and techniques for transforming conceptual models into effective implementations.
* Workshops
ER 2014 will host a number of workshops addressing different areas related to conceptual modeling that complement the main ER 2014 conference. Workshops are intended to serve as an intensive collaborative forum for exchanging innovative ideas in conceptual modeling. We encourage prospective workshop organizers to submit proposals for highly interactive workshops focusing on either in-depth analysis or broad-ranging approaches to emerging topics in conceptual modeling.
* Important Dates:
Workshop proposal submission: January 30th, 2014
Notification of acceptance: February 15, 2014 (Rolling acceptances)
Full paper submission: will depend upon the workshop
Camera-ready paper submission: July 15, 2014
* Submission Guidelines:
A workshop proposal should be about 3-5 pages long and contain the following information:
Title;
Topics of interest;
Format and duration;
Type (academic and/or industrial);
Significance in relation to topics of the main conference;
Organizers (attach short CVs, limit of 2 pages each, pointing out experience in organizing events);
Proposed program committee;
Expected submission volume and number of expected participants;
Please include any available information of previous organization of the workshop you are proposing, with an emphasis on submission and registration numbers. Workshop proposals will be reviewed based on the quality of the proposal, its relation to the main ER topics, the likelihood to attract enough participants, as well as the hosting capacity of the venue. Exact workshop paper submission and author notification due dates are at the discretion of workshop organizers but must fit within the time-line indicated.
* Conference and Workshop Proceedings
Proceedings of all ER workshops will be published as a single volume of Springer LNCS to be distributed at the ER 2014 conference. All the workshop papers should be limited to no more than 10 pages in LNCS format. It is expected that the organizers of ER workshops conform to the rules imposed by the ER steering committee - specifically, the acceptance rate for all workshops will not exceed 40% and organizers are not allowed to submit papers to their own workshop.
Workshop proposals should be submitted by email to the workshop chair.
